Upon complete addition the solution is refluxed for 15 minutes. To the yellow solution stirring under nitrogen atmosphere at reflux temperature, a solution of 199.1 g (1.0M) α-bromoacetophenone in 800 ml absolute ethanol is added rapidly dropwise over a period of 70 minutes. After complete addition, the suspension formed is refluxed for 3 hours. The reaction mixture is cooled and the precipitated NaBr is removed by vacuum filtration. The filtrate is concentrated in vacuo to give a brown oil with some solid present. This mixture is suspended in 500 ml of ether and is filtered to remove insoluble NaBr. The filtrate is stirred with activated charcoal for 0.5 hours, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo to give a red-brown oil. This oil is purified by vacuum distillation and the fraction is collected at 133°-137°/0.2-0.05 mm Hg and characterized by NMR as α-acetylthioacetophenone.
